What Could America Buy For The Money We Spend Every Day In Iraq?

Please look at the video below the fold. It is really, really telling. It was produced and posted to Youtube by AFSCVideos. The liner notes are very informative.

Visit http://www.afsc.org/cost to tell Congress how you want your tax dollars spent. The Iraq war has taken the lives of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and thousands of U.S. military personnel. It is also costing $720 Million dollars each day - dollars that could be spent in much more constructive ways. It is time to DEFUND the war and RE-FUND human needs in the U.S. and Iraq. Get more details about our Cost of War campaign and sign our petition at http://www.afsc.org/cost.
You have to hand it to those old time fundamentalist Christians to get right to the heart of things. Quaker values in action.

This would have been our video today if I had seen it. Thanks to Michael Downing at the Jackson County Democratic Committee Website for the link.
